Here are few methods that can be helpful and any of them can be your solution.

Method 1: Connect your hard drive to a different PC

A faulty, improperly connected hard drive can lead to error code 0x000000F4, so check the connection. Check the SATA cable of your PC for a loose connection or damaged cable. If either or both is the case, you should change the cable and/or tightly connect it to the hard drive.

If you have a laptop, then try reinstalling the hard drive.

You can also gently remove the hard drive from your PC or laptop and connect it to another PC with the same or even a different version of Windows.

Method 2: Run CHKDSK

You can run a CHKDSK scan on damaged disk volume and fix bad sectors. To do this, you must have a backup of your data.

Open Command Prompt with administrator rights in any way convenient for you and enter the command: CHKDSK /f /r C: and press Enter.

After completing the CHKDSK scan, restart your computer.

Method 3: Uninstall the programs

A recently installed software or hardware change can also result in a CRITICAL_OBJECT_TERMINATION blue screen error. You can revert these changes, but you must also ensure that only compatible hardware, device drivers, and software are installed.

For these purposes, use the System Restore function in Windows, and you can also manually uninstall programs in the Control Panel section.

If you are using a Dell computer, you can run hardware diagnostics as follows: press F12 and select Diagnostics. In the end, you can also contact the support service for the manufacturer of your system, and get expert assistance in diagnosing the hardware and troubleshooting problems.

Method 4: Run System File Checker (SFC)

The SFC scan checks Windows system files for corruption that can cause the 0x000000F4 blue screen error and replaces the corrupted system files with new files from the cache.

To do this, follow these steps:

Open Command Prompt in administrator mode and type sfc /scannow and press Enter to start scanning.

As soon as you complete the scan, restart your computer and observe the system; make sure the problem is fixed.
